Automated Service Level Management

Provides an automation framework for batch SLA management, including service goals, reporting and automated actions to ensure SLAs are met.

Automatically monitors R4HA usage and reduces MSU consumption in order to lower MLC monthly software charges when sub-capacity pricing is used. Reduced MSU consumption with ThruPut Manager is achieved through constraining and deferring workload, rather than manipulating cap levels. The potential for MSU reduction and MLC savings with ThruPut Manager can be significantly greater than with the capping products.

Automatically re-orders the batch queue ensuring that the most important workload is selected first and is progressively escalated as SLAs become more critical, ensuring that important workloads get done.

Enables the datacenter to avoid the negative effects of “hitting the wall” when R4HA caps are in place. Automatically reduces demand in advance of the cap; constrains demand during the capping period(s) and automatically restores workload to normal operations once the cap has passed.

Automatically determines resource dependencies (e.g., licensed software, DBMS region, etc.) ensuring that jobs run only where and when the specific resources are available. No user JCL changes are required.
